I am a huge Cerwin Vega fan to start and I have an entire 8.1 set up in my living room. This was the bass I was looking for. I nearly went with the more expensive 215s, and maybe I should have.This speaker sounds awesome! House shaking bass without even needing to turn it all the way up and with little distortion if kept at a reasonable volume. Besides being large and heavy, the perfect add on, until it messed up.I bought mine last July and used it at a moderate level (never going above half gain or over 80hz) with no issues until last December. Then it started making a loud scratchy noise while playing a movie. I tried several googled solutions to no avail.After contacting Cerwin Vega, they pointed me to the one and only shop in Kansas City that could do the warranty work so I took it there.The company Slice Speaker repair are awesome guys but basically told me they stopped doing repairs on Cerwin Vegas speakers because they deny almost every warranty claim and are NOW junk! The owner still helped me out and ended up fixing some cheap glue that had come undone and started making that noise.I that I got lucky my speaker wasn't blown and that I hadn't basically rented a subwoofer for the last 6 months for $600. Then 2 weeks later it happened again. I took it back in to the only shop I could and they had to recone the speaker this time. Unbelievable and what a waste of money on this Chinese made crap. All for show. There is no way to get my money back, the warranty is crap and I will be just constantly waiting for the next time im enjoying out for something to happen again.I live my older Cerwin Vegas. Best speakers I have nearly ever owned, but this over priced sub just lost my future business!

Failed after two weeks. Moderate listening level, infrequent use. Have had many Cerwin Vegas over the years. First failure. Dissappointing, but hope the manufacturer or dealer will make it right. Interestingly, amazon states a return cannot be processed as this is considered hazardous material. That could be humorous for multiple reasons...

The XLS 15s has a serious punch! It's sound quality and response is excellent and will only get better as I get some more listening time on it. From deep explosions originating from native 7.1 Xbox 1 games to the deep driving bass of classic country tunes to aggressive bass of metal and rock music and literally everything in between. I've been thoroughly impressed by its performance. The enclosure is well built and ported on the bottom as all other Vega's."Update"after seeing a few reviews about on board amplifier failures, I did a little investigating and discovered that under heavy listening the heat sink would reach in excess of 120* F, leading me to draw the conclusion of a little added cooling capacity is in order. I added a fan and temp controller and now don't see over 85* F under the same listening conditions.

I bought this sub after a lot of research. It seemed that all the 15 inch subs were either really cheap ($150 - $200) or very expensive ($1500+). I wanted something in between and this Cerwin Vega really fit the bill. I confess I was already a Cerwin Vega fan, having had a pair of Cerwin Vega stereo speakers with 15" subwoofers since college (they were 30+ yrs old!). When they were destroyed in a flood I took the opportunity to upgrade. I paired this sub with some Infinity Reference series tower speakers and I'm really please with the result. The sub is well built, has nice clean look and multiple input options. I believe bigger is better when it come to subs and a 15" delivers such a rich, full sound. I highly recommend this sub.

The sub is big and heavy. Its not the clearest sound I've ever heard but it is big physically and it puts out big bass. Its about what I expected. Great for loud music in a bigger room in a house. It would be great for a big party house. I wouldn't want it for a quality sounding home theater system.

I installed this unit in a customers house that has an open floor plan and 16 ft ceilings..about 800 square feet. I placed it in the only closed corner in the room and connected it to the entry level Denon 200 receiver and some Klipsh Quintet surrounds and they were shocked at the sound of this very inexpensive set up. The total cost was including labor was $1650.00 and that includes labor wire molding and surge protectors along with 1 fiber optic cable. I would have charged $1000.00 more for this set up but I have an account with them doing GPS tracking devices so I kept the price low. Anyway this subwoofer does what it's supposed to do...I hooked it up in my house to make sure it was working properly before lugging over to their house. My room is also open floor plan but with standard ceiling height of 9 ft but still around 600 square feet. I did a sine swept from 20 to 20,000 hz and at certain lower frequencies I thought my house was going to cave in. The 12 inch version is more than enough for most homes but you can spend a little more and get the 15 if you want more low end. However the 15 put out so much bass that if your room is to small you may experience cancellations because of the low frequency waves hitting a wall and causing phase problems. Your going to have to spend some big money on a sub to get better bass performance ...even then you might end up taking that expensive subwoofer back...Unless your living in a mansion with a 3000sf home theater you can't go wrong with this unit
